Local website receives extraordinary response from retail
outlets
by Franco Aloisio
Local e-commerce website ECASH.com.mt received an astonishing
response from retail outlets after introducing the site and
inviting retail outlets to register their stores within the
free ECASH gift system, the company said.
The website’s main feature is operating a gift certificate
system, were a user can purchase a gift certificate with the
amount of their choice, and have it sent to a friend or relative
residing in Malta, where the recipient can redeem this voucher
in any of the participating outlets, thus providing a perfect
gift solution for Maltese and foreign users alike.
Apart from sending gift vouchers over an internationally recognised
secure server, the website also features other free services
that include electronic postcards, an international flower delivery
service with next day delivery, daily horoscopes and an event
planner to remind you of your upcoming occasions.
The ECASH service is free to use and ECASH certificates have
a pound for pound value, which means the sender and recipient
are not charged when using the site.
ECASH.com.mt which is operated locally by Clayton Communications
Ltd, is officially due to launch its system in mid-November.
The official launch will take place in Malta, and will be mirrored
in Australia, America and Canada due to the dense Maltese population
in those countries.
According to Neil Pavia, managing director of Clayton Communications
Ltd, the ECASH system is being welcomed with increasing enthusiasm
by both local and foreign users even prior to its official launch.
“Local retail outlets have flooded us with requests to
register, which is a very encouraging sign. We feel the internet
is now starting to be recognised as a reputable sales medium
by local businesses,” he said.
“Our website offers a free and simple service to its users,
giving them the chance to send a ‘universal gift’
that will be appreciated and can be redeemed as the recipient
wishes. In today’s fast moving world, this type of service
is very convenient to use and most importantly does not take
the novelty away from giving gifts,” Mr Pavia said.
